Summary.

 The compounds Ca2(SeO3)(Se2O5), Ba(SeO3), and Ba(Se2O5) were obtained at low-hydrothermal conditions from aqueous solutions of SeO2 by reaction with the respective earth alkaline carbonate. The crystal structures were determined by direct methods from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. Ca2(SeO3)(Se2O5): space group P*, Z=2, a=5.517(1), b=8.210(2), c=8.716(2) Å, α=92.47(2), β=95.92(2), γ=97.15(2)°, V=389.0(2) Å3, R 1=0.017; Ba(SeO3): space group P21/m, Z=2, a=4.677(2), b=5.645(2), c=6.851(3) Å, β=107.16(2)°, V=172.8(1) Å3, R 1=0.022, Ba(Se2O5): space group P21/c, Z=4, a=4.553(1), b=11.724(3), c=9.758(2) Å, β=92.66(2)°, V=520.3(2)Å3, R1=0.027. All three compounds have framework structures; in the case of Ca2(SeO3)(Se2O5), subunits of edge-sharing CaO n polyhedra forming sheets parallel to (010) can be emphasized. Ba(SeO3) belongs to the structure type of KClO3. In Ba(Se2O5), chains of face-sharing BaO9 polyhedra along [100] are present. The calcium atoms are 7- and 8-coordinated with mean Ca–O bond lengths of 2.42 and 2.48 Å, the barium atoms have nine oxygen ligands with mean Ba–O bond lengths of 2.87 Å.

Zusammenfassung.

 Die Verbindungen Ca2(SeO3)(Se2O5), Ba(SeO3) und Ba(Se2O5) wurden unter niedrig-hydrothermalen Bedingungen aus wäßrigen Lösungen von SeO2 durch Reaktion mit den jeweiligen Erdalkalikarbonaten erhalten. Die Kristallstrukturen wurden aus Einkristallröntgendaten mittels direkter Methoden bestimmt. Ca2(SeO3)(Se2O5): Raumgruppe P*, Z=2, a=5.517(1), b=8.210(2), c=8.716(2) Å, α=92.47(2), β=95.92(2), γ=97.15(2)°, V=389.0(2) Å3, R 1=0.017; Ba(SeO3): Raumgruppe P21/m, Z=2, a=4.677(2), b=5.645(2), c=6.851(3) Å, β=107.16(2)°, V=172.8(1) Å3, R 1=0.022; Ba(Se2O5): Raumgruppe P21/c, Z= 4, a= 4.553(1), b=11.724(3), c=9.758(2) Å, β=92.66(2)°, V=520.3(2) Å3, R 1=0.027. Alle drei Verbindungen besitzen Gerüststrukturen; im Fall des Ca2(SeO3)(Se2O5) können Einheiten von kantenverknüpften CaOn Polyedern hervorgehoben werden, die Schichten parallel zu (010) bilden. Ba(SeO3) gehört dem KClO3-Strukturtyp an. In Ba(Se2O5) treten Ketten von flächenverknüpften BaO9 Polyedern entlang [100] auf. Die Calciumatome sind 7- und 8-koordiniert mit mittleren Ca–O Bindungslängen von 2.42 und 2.48 Å: die beiden Bariumatome weisen neun Sauerstoffliganden mit mittleren Ba–O Bindungslängen von 2.87 Å auf.
